Can Someone Make A Save? - S5

The Avalanche's 2024-25 season is underway, but a 8-4 setback to the Golden Knights in the season opener has them asking questions about their goaltending after 7 goals against on just 20 shots for both Georgiev and Annunen. How tight is the leash for Georgiev from here on, and can he bounce back similar to in the playoffs? Mikko Rantanen still doesn't have a contract as the season starts and just opened the year with a hat trick. Is that any reason to be concerned? What positives can be drawn from the season opener ahead of the home opener against Columbus?

Rosters Finalized + Western Conference Predictions - S5

The Avalanche's roster is finalized ahead of the regular season opener, with some major salary cap shenanigans already taking place. Ivan-Ivan and Kovalenko have seemingly been sent down and not on the roster, but it's actually a smoke screen purely for salary cap reasons, so no reason to panic. They will play. With Lehkonen seemingly not coming back before the end of October, the new kids will have to hold their own in these roles for longer than expected. Also, finishing our season predictions with the Pacific and Central division, and our Stanley Cup predictions for the year!

The Avalanche are the busiest team in the NHL as the regular season approaches, trading Erik Brannstrom to the Vancouver Canucks after claiming John Ludvig from the Penguins as the defense continues to shift everyday.

Erik Brannstrom is the most exciting addition of the bunch, with a high ceiling and a lots of room to grow into an everyday defenseman, but is Colorado the best spot for him to grow into that role?

The Goalies - Season Review and Preview - S4

Alex Georgiev was easily the most frustrating part of the season, finishing with an .897 and forcing the team into several bad spots, but saved his job with a great playoff run against Winnipeg and Dallas to remain as the starter for next year. With two seasons of polar opposites, what can be expected in Georgiev's third, and most likely final year in Colorado going into the final year of his deal? On the other side, Justus Annunen stablized the backup goalie position late in the season and gave the Avs some much needed relief in goal, but can he take another step this year into full time NHL backup and make a case for starter as soon as next season.

Devon Toews missed the game with an illness at the last moment, leaving the Avs without two important pieces on both sides of the puck.

Lot of sloppy mistakes, missed opportunities, failed scoring chances, and overall out of sync play cost them big, and a really sloppy third period plus a bad powerplay took away any chance of a win.

The Colorado Avalanche have traded Bo Byram to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Casey Mittelstadt, at long last solving their need at second line center for the foreseeable future, but at the cost of a beloved player in Byram.

Tell It Avs It Is - The Elusive 100 Point Club - S3

The Avalanche finally claimed first in the Central division with a 4-3 overtime victory over the San Jose Sharks, and officially clinched a spot in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Also, Nathan MacKinnon FINALLY hit 100 points for the first time his career on the overtime winner, and at last joins the 100 point club after so many interruptions getting in the way. Rantanen is still pushing for 50 goals, but came remarkable close against San Jose. Is it better to rest Cale Makar down the stretch and make sure he's completely healthy before the playoffs, even with the division at stake?

The Avalanche have had a tough last few days. First, the Avs came up empty before the trade deadline and did not add any other pieces for the rest of the season, but is this really a bad thing when the right fit might not have been there? Less optimistically, the Avs got absolutely crushed in a huge game against Dallas with a 7-3 loss, with very few positives to spin out of such a poor performance. The next day, the Avs had a late lead against the Kraken, but couldn't hold on late and give up a valuable point in OT. After playing perfect hockey so recently, what's the deal here?

It was two completely different games for the Avalanche in the midst of the season low point, losing in embarrassing fashion to the league worst Chicago Blackhawks 3-2 in a total lackluster effort, but followed it up with a near perfect 7-0 win over the Ottawa Senators on home ice for their first regulation win in almost a month.

Tell It Avs It Is - To Panic, or not to Panic?- S3

The Avalanche failed to capitalize on the momentum from ending their losing streak, and stumbled badly in a 5-4 loss to the Florida Panthers after a failed comeback attempt down 4-1. A bad 40 minutes doomed the Avs, and injuries are no longer excuse for the numerous mental errors that have plagued the Avs recently. A comeback attempt was foiled by a bad call that gave Florida a go ahead PPG, but that can't excuse what led to that point. What exactly is wrong here? With still more than halfway to go in the season, what do the Avs have to do to turn this around?

The Avalanche are back in the win column at last with two straight wins over the St. Louis Blues and Philadelphia Flyers. Mikko Rantanen saved the Avs from disaster after a blown lead with a goal with 7 seconds left in regulation, and winning the game in overtime with a hat trick to get the Avs back in the win column. The Avs were also able to hold off the Flyers, as the depth scoring and goaltending came through. Also, Bo Horvat reportedly turned down an extension with the Vancouver Canucks, meaning he could be on the trade market at the trade deadline. Could he be a fit for the Avalanche? If not Horvat, who fits at second line center? Finally, Alex Ovechkin scores his 800th NHL goal on the worst NHL broadcast of all time.

Tell It Avs It Is - Mikko Rantanen - Season Review and Preview

The Avalanche season review/preview series continues with Mikko Rantanen, the Avs leader in goals and points in the regular season. Despite some frustrating stretches, Rantanen's talent was able to override some off nights as he continued to rack up points, even during the playoffs when the goalscoring dried up. With a career best season and a Stanley Cup victory in the books, can Rantanen emerge into the same elite superstar conversation as MacKinnon and Makar? Will he care out his own role of second line center this season with Kadri likely gone?

Again the Avalanche have proven that they are the better team in this series, and the rest of the world is starting to realize what we've all been talking about for so long. JT Compher proved once again he has the clutch gene, and scored one of the biggest goals of the playoffs for the GWG. Also, Evander Kane is a scumbag who does not belong in the NHL, and now Nazem Kadri is likely out for the remainder of the playoffs as a result. Kane should be suspended for the remainder of the series, which likely won't be very long, but expectations for Player Safety to do their job is low.

Tell It Avs It Is - S2 - R1 - G4 Extinct Predator

The Colorado Avalanche have swept the Nashville Predators and are moving onto the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs following a 5-3 victory in Game 4. The Avalanche did not play their best game, but when you have a player as dominant as Cale Makar on your team, it really does not matter at the end of the day. Makar took over this series and this game, and helped the Avalanche scratch and claw their way through a tough game that was capped off with a third period comeback. The Avs are in the same spot as last year, but is this team different now? Who will be waiting for the Avalanche next week in the Second Round?

Tell It Avs It Is - EP47 -S2 Fire Extinguishers

In a two part episode, the Avalanche had an eventful couple of days, starting with an excellent effort against the Carolina Hurricanes, before getting jobbed at the very end with some questionable officiating and shutout for the first time this season in a 2-0 loss. Also, Gabe Landeskog undergoes knee surgery for a lingering injury, likely keeping him out for the rest of the season. Can the Avalanche do a little extra at the trade deadline with the extra cap space? Also, Sam Girard will miss four weeks with a lower body injury, and the defense looks decimated as a result. Finally, Pavel Francouz signs a two-year contract extension, ensuring the Avs at least have a backup for the next two years. In part two (56:44), the Avalanche put forth an outstanding performance and shutout the Calgary Flames to get back in the win column, with Darcy Kuemper posting a 46 save shutout. Everybody stepped up their game with no Landeskog or Girard, and if the Avalanche play like this in the playoffs, they're going to win the Stanley Cup. Also, is Nathan MacKinnon actually going to get to 30 goals this season after having 3 in January? Finally, with the West as a weak as it is, there's never been a better time to go all in at the trade deadline.

Tell It Avs It Is - EP45 -S2 Playing with Fire

It's a rare episode where there's not one, but two Avalanche loses to talk about. The Avalanche lose two in a row for the first time since early November after a 2-1 loss to Arizona and a 4-3 overtime to Calgary. There's stuff to criticize after a playoff style loss to the Calgary Flames in overtime, including some horrific mistakes at critical times from important players, but also plenty of reason for optimism as the Avalanche are still clearly the best team in the West. Also, where are all the trade deadline rumors? When are the Avalanche going to make some moves?
